SRI’s Short Retention Juice Clarifier design maximises sucrose retention and minimises the resources used to efficiently separate mud from the clear juice in the cane clarification process.
| Low sugar losses | Inversion is minimised and mud densities are higher (which, in turn, reduces cake losses) |
| Low capital costs | Short retention times mean that a smaller SRI clarifier can easily handle higher throughputs than big and costly multi-tray designs. |
| High sugar quality | Designed for low internal turbulence at high throughputs - the result is low turbidity and minimal bagacillio carryover in the clarified juice, higher sugar quality and less operational issues downstream. |
| Reduced chemicals | Designed to lower rates of flocculent and lime addition in order to achieve quality targets. |
Based on a standard range of designs with diameters from 5 to 15 metres, SRI’s Short Retention Juice Clarifiers effectively process juice clarifiers from 2,000 to 24,000 tonnes of cane a day.
SRI’s factory proven clarifier designs are easy to operate and are easily adjusted to changes in incoming mud levels and settling characteristics.
